I actually had all Apple examples up originally (iPad, iPod, and left off iPhone) but changed it because it would seem like I was just a shill for Apple (which is partially correct). I threw in Screenr because about 3 months before we released Screenr a screencasting tool that integrated with Twitter was released that was very, very close in functionality, and after freaking out about the fact that we weren't first to market with this, we realized that it didn't matter if we were first if we thought we could execute better. So I thought by mentioning Screenr it would bring the idea home a bit. I appreciate the feedback. -Dave Hey Andy,

It's not too far from just posting "Screenr is the best web based screen recorder!" Apart from that, I'd say this post reminds me of Seth Godin's blog. =) (Which many folks would take as a compliment.) Hi Dave,
